| | |
EOMS T-Services (also known as M@estro) was designed to enable print managers and IS managers to monitor all IP-based printers. In fact, T-Services can monitor up to 255 devices (per server) within the enterprise and establish rules for effective distribution of documents to multiple destinations, such as e-mail, printers, or FTP servers.
T-Services' core cluster functions include job, set, copy, colour and black-and-white splitting. Also included are load balancing, job accounting/status and error recovery. Currently, T-Services outputs PostScript; PCL and PDF will follow.
The following printers are currently supported with a cluster solution: DocuPrint / DocuTech 75 and 90 with DocuSP 2.x, DocuTech 6100, 6115, 6135, 6155, 6180 and pre-owned equipment 6135 and 6180 under DocuSP 3.x. New production colour printers DocuColor 2045 and 2060 with EFI DFE, as well as Document Centre 490ST, 480ST, DocuColor 12 with an XP12 or X12 front end are also supported.

Device Management
Provides automated network printer management and event notification. T-Services "sniffs" out networked print devices by a user-selectable range of IP addresses. The user interface allows all printers to be managed from a single location, providing status and event information such as in-use, busy, off-line, replace toner, low paper levels and so on. These valuable alerts ensure that network print devices run at full capacity, maximising user productivity.
Intelligent Document Distribution
Simultaneously delivers documents to multiple destinations, such as printer, e-mail or FTP. The tedious and time-consuming document distribution process can be automated and tailored to meet the needs of large and small enterprises.
Workflow Management and Scripting
Enable users to optimise and automate document workflow, from creation to final destination. Jobs submitted to T-Services can be previewed from the user interface facility before or after they are printed. This allows users to make last minute adjustments to colour, scaling and page range printing. The script editor allows users to route jobs based on parameters such as number of pages, toner coverage, finishing options, etc.
Running on an NT server
T-Services operates as a network service made available to users through network print queues or hot folders. The thin-client model requires only a print driver to access T-Services' features.
Destination Queues
Offers robust functionality based on the concepts of input and output channels. A channel is simply a path of information to or from a specific source. T-Services' input channels include print job submissions from sources such as computers (using the standard file/print process), a hot folder or FTP. Destination queues can support a wide range of output devices such as printers, FTP, e-mail distribution, and MicroPress servers along with automatic distributed output to printers, email lists, hot folders and FTP.
Easily customised
T-Services can meet the needs of any workflow environment by simply creating scripts in the Microsoft Visual Basic programming language. Also, development interfaces allow for full customisation, integration and information sharing between T-Services and other software applications. This allows for effective job tracking, bill-back and analysis utilising existing customer tools.
